Lanman's Sanskrit Reader
Unsurpassed. Highly recommended for Class Room instruction or for Independent Students who have achieved at least an intermediate level. This book is intended
...
to be used with Whitney's "Sanskrit Grammar" it is difficult. Superb selections from: the Rig Veda, Epics, Buddhist Hitopadesha, Manu Literature, etc. Devanagari, Glossary, Explanatary notes. Mr. Lanman does not hold your hand, at times the going is quite difficult; but, nonetheless rewarding. Listed journal articles and resources are still available on the Internet. It's a Gem, the best General Sanskrit Reader I know of.
